Sharon has been tutoring Bryn in French for his A levels for a while now and he is finding the sessions enormously helpful. Her calm and clear explanations and positive supportive approach work really well. Can’t recommend her highly enough.
Bryn is an absolute delight to teach and his motivation is exemplary - to want lessons even whilst on holiday shows remarkable commitment! I really look forward to our sessions and he deserves to do really well in his French A level
From Yuleima
I had a session with Sharon recently. It was very helpful. Sharon advised me widely about my IELTS test. Supporting my preparation for the test with some useful resources. Very appreciated. Yuleima
Thank you for your feedback Yuleima. I am so pleased that you found the session useful; it was a pleasure working with you. I wish you the very best in your IELTS exam and your postgraduate studies.
From Jun
Sharon is very good. My son likes her teaching very much!
Thank you for your review, Jun. Your son is a delight to work with and with such enthusiasm and motivation, he deserves to do very well in his exams!
From Binder
Sharon is an excellent tutor. My son lacked confidence in French (particularly in speaking) before Sharon starter tutoring him. He did not enjoy the subject very much. Since Sharon started tutoring him, he has grown in confidence and has been doing extremely well in school. He has gone from being average in his class to being one of the most proficient (according to his teacher).
Thank you for your great feedback. It is an absolute pleasure working with you son and he certainly deserves the great results he has just received in his mock exams.
From MELANIE
Taking lessons in Spanish with Sharon has been a very rewarding experience.I am hopefully making progress with the Spanish language but also learning about Spanish culture and historical context which is so interesting. I have no hesitation in recommending Sharon who is a most professional and competent teacher who has helped me as an adult learner to return to language learning
It's a very rewarding experience working with you, Melanie - not least for your interest in the new 'worlds' that learning Spanish opens up. I think you know that you're making good progress: from your very competent interaction in our spontaneous conversations and your success in the more formal and structured activities. I'm also delighted that you are now more enthusiastic about linguistics than you were when learning French and German.
From Jessica
Fabulous teacher. Sharon has been teaching my son GCSE French for almost a year now and he is making good progress. She's very patient and keeps him engaged through a variety of mediums. She provides him with lots of links for revision and further study and informs me of topics covered etc. I would definitely recommend her to others.
Thank you for taking the time to leave feedback, Jessica; I'm thrilled with your comments. It's an absolute pleasure working with your son, who always works hard, stays engaged and demonstrates enthusiasm - even with the most challenging of grammar concepts!
From Scott
Sharon is very friendly, relaxed, patient and can adapt to her students needs. Highly recommended A+++++
Hi Scott
Thank you for your review. I'm so pleased that you feel so positively about our lessons. You've already made excellent progress - which is thanks in large part to your commitment between lessons but hopefully the relaxed and friendly nature of the lessons also helps!
From Tim
Sharon is an excellent tutor who was able to quickly recognise my strengths and weaknesses. She is able to draw on a great depth of knowledge and experience which makes her lessons both highly enjoyable and very informative. Thank you very much.
Thank you for your kind words Tim. It is always such a pleasure teaching students who share such enthusiasm for and interest in languages.
From Gill
Sharon is very patient and therefore it makes the lesson enjoyable as well as educational.
Hi Gill, I am so pleased you find the lessons both enjoyable and educational. It is lovely working with you and I can say, in all honesty, that patience doesn't come into it; it is simply and always a joy to teach!
From Sarah
I have no hesitation in recommending Sharon, she has been a superb Spanish tutor for our daughter during the run up to her GCSE's. She is patient, kind, encouraging and professional, Alice has really enjoyed her weekly lesson which has maximised her understanding and learning of this language and this in turn has given her the confidence which has been so lacking. She mainly had one-to-one lessons but had an extra couple of on-lines too which work better than I had anticipated. Sharon genuinely cares about her students and should Alice be continuing with Spanish at A Level we would definitely continue with additional tutoring with her.
I have already recommended Sharon to other friends and will continue to do so. A fantastic tutor. I dropped so lucky finding her!
Alice was a fantastic student - I was lucky to work with her! It was a pleasure getting to know her and her lovely family and, should she decide to continue with Spanish at A Level, I would be absolutely delighted to work with her again!
From Paul
Sharon has been a great influence on our daughter’s A-Level French this year - our only regret was that we didn’t find her sooner ! Sharon is professional, responsive, friendly and fun and our daughter’s confidence has grown so much over the last few months. We would not hesitate in recommending Sharon. Thanks ! Paul
It was an absolute pleasure working with and getting to know your daughter, so I wish I'd had the chance to work with her for longer too! I wish her the very best in her French A Level - and in all her exams and in everything she does in the future.
From Robert
Our daughter thoroughly enjoyed her sessions with Sharon and clearly has benefitted enormously. She has made considerable progress and was able to approach her speaking exams with confidence thanks to Sharon’s help. I would thoroughly recommend her. Thank you Sharon.
I thoroughly enjoyed working with your daughter, Robert! And I was thrilled to learn that her speaking exam went so well. After all her hard and conscience work, she deserves to get very good results in all the units.
From Maggie
We have not had our initial session yet due to our long haul travel plans but Sharon has been very proactive in trying to arrange a meeting and has offered lots of advice and useful information for us to help prepare for our lessons.
I'm really looking forward to working with you when you are back from your travels and hope you find the links and information on resources useful.
From Dan
Awesome teacher! Easy going and very down to earth. I have learnt so much already not just the language but also about the culture and history. Very interesting. Thank you
Dan, it is a delight to teach you! Your excellent progress is due in large part to your hard work and your enthusiasm for the cultural and historical aspects, which give the language such important context
From Sandra
As a mature person I was a little worried about learning a new language, especially as I found learning French at school very difficult. From the first lesson Sharon made me feel confident and Sharon’s teaching style puts me at ease, I’m so glad I made the decision to learn Spanish and would highly recommend Sharon to those looking for a tutor. Mucho gracias Sharon
Sandra, it's an absolute pleasure teaching you and I relish the idea of witnessing your transformation into a speaker of Spanish who will use this lovely language in your new life in such a glorious country. Muchas gracias a ti!
From Adrian
Sharon is an excellent tutor. She is professional and very reliable. Her approach to teaching languages is ideal not only for giving my daughter confidence but enhancing her A level French skills
Your daughter is a real pleasure to teach and I'm thrilled that her confidence has already been boosted and her A Level skills enhanced. For successful language learning it's really important to 'take control' (identify gaps and weaknesses and use all the tools at your disposal to work on those areas) - your daughter is doing just that and, if she continues to work hard, she deserves to do well.
From Paul
Sharon is such a patient teacher! I feel extremely comfortable and Sharon is very clear and encouraging.
It's a pleasure teaching you Paul and an honour to play even a very small part in your preparations for a new life!
